Moonlighteris a roguelite that provides a refreshing blend of dungeon crawling and shop management. Basically, the gameplay loop revolves around exploring dungeons to collect loot, all in the hope of selling these items to turn a profit, and all of this is presented through a vibrant art style. The structure is simple and addictive, and you will spend as much time fighting bosses as you will price-gauging (and exploring other mechanics like crafting). To succeed, you will need to master both sides of the equation, and the process can be slow-moving while you are still coming to grips with everything.
Along with planning and executing dungeon crawls, you also need to know how to sell items at the best price for the right customer. The latter is built on trial and error, and learningMoonlighter’s best item pricesis a part of the fun. However, there could be situations where you might prefer to skip the guesswork and just learn the ideal price list. If that is the case, this guide should help.
Updated on July 15, 2025 by Mark Sammut:WithMoonlighter 2: The Endless Vaulttargeting a 2025 debut, its predecessor is starting to feel like old news by this point. However, Moonlighter is still a popular and, more importantly, great game that can offer countless hours of entertainment for anyone craving a unique but fun blend of roguelite dungeon crawling and shop management. A standard playthrough might be enough for most people, but there is also the option to try New Game+. A section dedicated to that mode has been added to this article.

Once you have the perfect price, you can continue to make adjustments upwards or downwards. This canhelp shopkeeperstake advantage of items that are popular during a certain period, or if the clientele happens to be loaded with cash.

New Game+ Item Prices
Price Spike (That Is Somewhat Negated)
While the focus of this article is on the standard prices within a normal playthrough,Moonlighteralso features New Game+, a mode that was introduced with 2018’s Adventure Update. Unsurprisingly, NG+ offers a considerable difficulty spike, which impacts both dungeon crawling and the shop simulation elements.
The latter mostly comes in the form of significant price hikes, asitem costs are multiplied by roughly 5.6 inMoonlighter’s New Game+. In theory, this sounds like a massive increase that could slow down a new playthrough to a crawl, but the game allows you to hold on to any money collected during the previous run. Therefore, you will likely start NG+ with a healthy sum of cash that should make up for the price increase. As you also keep a few of your items and receive access to new equipment like the Pirate weapons, NG+ is a bit easier than it might initially seem. Ultimately, if you loveMoonlighterbut want to add a bit of a twist to the formula, this mode works well as an option.
